How does Firepass determine the FQDN of connecting machine?
Hi!
We have our firepass working with a pre-logon endpoint inspection of a machine certificate (does the standard check of CN equal to FQDN). However, my CISO is asking how the Firepass determines the FQDN. It does not seem to be Reverse-DNS because I connected to the Firepass through another VPN which does not provide a reverse-DNS lookup. Can anyone tell me how, in fact, the Firepass determines the FQDN of the connecting machine? He is looking at it to determine whether it meets our security policies.
Thanks.
